Do you often complain about your poor reflexes? Well, Pickleball is your sport! This game involves quick reactions, eye-hand coordination, and precise timing, improving your skills and reflexes with time.

This sport can be a game-changer for various muscle groups, particularly in the legs, core, and arms. Holding rallies and sprinting to the ball makes it interesting, and beneficial and requires no heavy lifting to improve muscular endurance and overall strength.
